He is a dirtier player than even Draymond....

Look at how many flagrants he has already and he gets away with a lot of fouls that should have been flagrants too.

To me he is the third best player in the NBA - Luka and Embiid are comfortably ahead of him.

He didn't get a flagrant for all of his dirty plays this game either.

Protect himself? He freaking pulled him towards himself. That's not trying to protect yourself. That's putting yourself in more danger just to make sure the other guy definitely gets hurt.

Again, you do not bear hug someone's legs while in the air. You just don't. When you do, you're trying to injure them. Period. Every player knows that you don't pull that kind of ****.



And as I've said before emotions go the better of him. He basically said dont' even come close to landing on me, I'm going to get you the **** out of the way, even if I have to throw you off me. Very risky, with a high likeliness to hurt someone. That doesn't mean that he wanted to hurt him. That means he was dealing with enough **** that he had a brain fart. What **** was he dealing with? Injured leg, paralysed face, team facing a 3-0 hole, the continuous talk about him coming up small in the playoffs. It's inexcusable, doesn't mean he meant to hurt. You can argue it all along, but unless you were actually in his mind you dont' know that. If he actually wanted to hurt him he could have done far worse.


I bolded that part because I wanted to point out that this is NOT how you generally prove intent. If you had to actually be in someone's mind to prove someone's intent then you could never realistically prove that anyone did anything intentionally. That's an impossible standard to set and, obviously, it doesn't really work that way.

Did Embiid know that an injury can occur if you bear hug someone's leg while they are in mid air? Yep, he did. Did he choose to bear-hug Robinson's legs while he was in mid air despite having the knowledge that this can result in an injury? Yes, he did. Therefore, what he did was no accident. His actions showed intent to harm.

That is not an argument at all, my friend. There is really no argument that can defend this bearhug. None. It was a dirty play with intent to harm.

I'm wondering, if you still believe this guy is not as bad as Hussein.


I do not believe that anyone will ever reach the level of Hussien Fatal. Hussien is a whole other level.

Embiid whenever losing, his plan is to injure the other teams players to try and win the game, not beat them through skill. Pathetic "superstar" and a fraud who never should've won MVP, should've went to Jokic again, only won cause of voter fatigue and him basically campaigning for the award which is so pathetic.

Philly deserves better. On the bright side Maxey is just awesome, and a virtual opposite of Embiid personality wise.

He's already worse than Draymond. He just doesn't get punished for it.

It absolutely sucks playing against a team where they have a player who has carte blanche to take out any of your players at any moment.

start watching the games. the knicks play hard, embiid is dirty. IF you would actually watch the game and if you are so unbiased as you act, you would know that too. your are talking out of your ass to start **** over here :D


I don’t care how hard the Knicks play. Embiid is bigger than everyone else and he can bully these bitches all he wants.
If the Knicks have an issue then they can fight back but they won’t. 8-)


Embitch ass got bullied around today and took an L :lol:

It was three pronged:
1. Embiid's 3 year media campaign and attacks on Jokic directly (remember, he called out Jokic's defense and said he never won anything in an interview that dropped the same day that Embiid ducked the Denver game last season)

2. Perkins and Smith playing the race card

3. Gatekeeper voters not wanting Jokic to receive an honor they stupidly denied to LeBron and Jordan (neither of them ever won 3 straight even though they should have). It's just like how for a long time baseball HOF voters had an unwritten rule that nobody should ever get 100% of the vote because Babe Ruth didn't, which caused some crazy idiots to actually vote "no" on the first HOF ballot for guys like Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Greg Maddux, Stan Musial, Ted Williams, and other obvious all-time greats of the sport. Shameful.
